Talk:Exemplars
Help me out here guys. Im getting bogged down in verbiage. I have these different terms, and I cant decide which one is better and makes the most sense. Some of them need to be stripped away. What Im talking about: Prime, New Man/Woman, Exemplars, next evolutionary step. None jumps out at me, and I cant figure out which lends itself to the smoothest usage. Whenever I get ready to do some writing I end up wrestling over semantics.
--Edmiao 19:24, 25 October 2006 (MDT)Just go with the old X men term: Homo Superior. or Mutie. Depends on what connotation you want. Exemplar has a superior, haughty ring to it. So does Prime. New Human is fairly neutral and gets you away from the Man/Woman thing. How about Homo Nuevo (sounds like a gay latino).
--Jason 21:00, 25 October 2006 (MDT)I need one term that is all sciency, one that you doctor types would make up and use in research papers. Then another one for public consumption, this is where the choice is Exemplar or Prime makes sense. I do like the homo sapiens superioris like the XMen did. Thats why I want a sciency term.

--Gdaze-- What??? We better look awesome like that! Hahaha! But yeah... actually what are we gonna look like?
--Edmiao 00:09, 28 February 2007 (MST) Viho, my character, does not wear a costume or dress in tights. but he is kind of a comic book caricature, being smaller than any midget, flying around in a hoverchair, and driving a dreadnaught.
--BenofZongo 00:20, 28 February 2007 (MST)My guy looks completely normal. No costume, hoverchairs, or dreadnaughts. But don't let me stop you from wearing tights. My alt was a classic, tights-n-brights super hero.
